Climbing the mountain in 2020

I had a reservation in King's for next week. And now everything in Europe is down. King's Casino is closed today. Czech Republic has closed the borders. My reservation has been cancelled. So you can understand that I am angry about it.

Here in the Netherlands the government has decided that all the casino's and libraries etc have to close. These measurements are completely disproportional.

This is really a kind of global mass hystery and craziness. Corona causes less symptoms than an ordinary flu. Generally only weak sick people will die, like they would die because of a flu.
A normal healthy person will have fever a few days and will be better again. The immune system will conquer the virus.
So now the whole population must suffer of closing down almost all social activities, only to save may be a few thousands of people that are already sick with other diseases. On a global population of 9 billion.... This is mass hystery.

But let's see the good side of closing the borders: a lot less airplanes and a lot less pollution.

So playing at the casino is more important for you than people's life?
In my country the gov said that the main risk is that the virus will spread so widely so they will have to decide who should live and who should die because they won't be able to give help to everyone.

Also... the polution is important but virus spreading is not?

Really. If those measures are meant to save a couple of lives then stay the f#*$ home for those couple of weeks.

What is the deal with toilet paper?!

People here in the Vancouver area were stocking up, but I can't see that the supply will run out.

I was in King's for the weekend. Business as usual. The nice yellow Ferrari of Leon was in front of my window. Also some beautiful Lamborghini's and Porsches sportcars.
But my room was in the old building of the Casino and was not good at all, even though they call it 5*. I booked for 4 nights, but I already left after 3 nights. Next time I will take a different room.

did you play poker? can you share some pictures, just curious

have fun

I wanted to play cashgame NL 1eu/3eu on Saturday night. There were 10 tables running of that limit, but they were all full. I waited for more than an hour, but no seat.
My next stay when I am in a better room and when I have better slept, I will try again.

I heard from a guy from Brussels, that the games are rather soft and that he was able to earn money there. Softer than in other casino's.

Hey Adelaar,

what is considered as good winrate in live CG? And how's the field?

Because from what I have heard, I should be playing live haha.

What kind of software do you use for tracking your results?
